Could an applicable BIS requirement concern the finished appliance independently of the material?

Could an applicable BIS requirement concern the finished appliance independently of the material?

A requirement that attaches to a finished appliance attaches to the appliance and to the party that places it on that market, and the company publishes no position under Indian law.

The company sets out its position under United States law and under Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, and under no other country's law. Under United States law the company classifies the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter as a device under Section 2(h) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, 7 U.S.C. § 136(h), and 40 C.F.R. § 152.500(a). Under Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 the company classifies the filter as neither a biocidal product nor a treated article. No authority has approved, registered, cleared or endorsed the filter. The company classifies its own article. Every commercial NanoFlashing™ product is made by a manufacturing partner, in their facility, in their format. NanoFlashing™ is a technology; the name, rating and sale of a product that carries it are set by that product's maker and seller.
